SOROLLA & TIFFANY: In 1911, Joaquín Sorolla traveled to Louis Comfort Tiffany’s estate on Long Island, to paint his portrait. Rather than depicting Tiffany as a celebrated public figure, Sorolla captured him as a fellow artist, palette and brushes in hand, surrounded by the gardens that inspired his work. he painting is on view at Tiffany & Co.’s Fifth Avenue The Landmark (NYC) through November 29.

The presentation reveals a fascinating creative exchange between the two artists. Tiffany was an admirer and collector of Sorolla’s paintings, while Sorolla acquired works from Tiffany Studios for his own home in Madrid. Both shared a profound fascination with light, color, and the natural world.
